It is actually a CSS question, but what you need to do is include the CSS for the scrollbars on each page that you want to display the colored scrollbars, not the page that sets up the frameset. For instance, you need to include it on these pages:

http://www.geocities.com/irona_2/navig_2.html
http://www.geocities.com/irona_2/fun_1.html

ahh thank you soo much! (i'm pretty new with all this html/etc stuff *blushes*)
that definately explains my problems with it hehe

oh another quick question..what's used to change the color of frame borders? (so that i can blend them into the page rather than having them white and tacky)

Add something like this to your <frame> tags:

style="border-right: #cccccc 1px solid;"

Where right is the direction (right, left, top, or bottom). If you want to do all borders, just use border.

If you just want to get rid of the lines, add this code to each of your <frameset> tags:

frameborder="no"

so your tags will look like this:

<frameset rows="50,50" frameborder="no">

<frameset cols="70,30" frameborder="no">

<frame src="http://www.geocities.com/irona_2/top_pic.html" scrolling="no" "noresize">

<frame src="http://www.geocities.com/irona_2/navig_2.html" scrolling="yes" "noresize">

</frameset>

<frameset cols="30,40,30" frameborder="no">

<frame src="http://www.geocities.com/irona_2/empty.html" scrolling="no">

<frame src="http://www.geocities.com/irona_2/fun_1.html" scrolling="yes">

<frame src="http://www.geocities.com/irona_2/empty.html" scrolling="NO">

</frameset>

Ok, sorry about that. All you need to do is add border="0" to the first <frameset> tag and it should work.

You cannot have more than one FRAMESET in a frame set. See http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/present/frames.html.
